Researchers say a daily glass alcoholic beverage might increase the risk of breast cancer.<\/p>\n

According to a new report by the World Cancer Research Fund and the American Institute for Cancer Research, on Wednesday, an average of 10g of alcohol a day is associated with a five per cent risk increase of breast cancer in pre-menopausal women and nine per cent in post-menopausal women.<\/p>\n

Researchers analysed 119 observational studies on breast cancer risk from around the world, which included 12 million women and more than 260,000 cases of breast cancer.<\/p>\n

The report also revealed, for the first time, that vigorous exercise such as running or fast bicycling decreases the risk of both pre- and post-menopausal breast cancers.<\/p>\n

The new report also analyzes previous studies on associations between breast cancer risk and overall diet, nutrition, physical activity and weight.<\/p>\n

It finds that greater weight gain or body fatness in adulthood, for instance, increases the risk of postmenopausal breast cancer.<\/p>

It also points out that mothers who breastfeed are at lower risk for breast cancer.<\/p>\n

Dr. Anne McTiernan, said: \u201cwith this comprehensive and up-to-date report, the evidence is clear: having a physically active lifestyle, maintaining a healthy weight throughout life and limiting alcohol \u2013 these are all steps women can take to lower their risk.\u201d<\/p>\n

McTiernan, is the lead author of the report and cancer prevention expert at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Centre.<\/p>\n

According to WHO, globally, breast cancer is the top cancer form in women.<\/p>\n

WHO also said that breast cancer can occur in men, rare though, accounting for less than 1 percent of cancer incidences and mortality among men in the US. (NAN)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
